Interested in taking on a leadership role to build a kick-ass product? Read on…

About you

This is a incredibly rare opportunity. As Product Manager, you’ll take direct ownership of a product that’s used (and loved!) by millions of people, and which adds thousands of new users every day. Biteable is well-funded, ambitious, and we don’t ever settle for “good enough” – and neither should you.

In addition to your (minimum) 5 years of experience, you also consider yourself to be data-driven and customer-centric. You’re confident in your ability to leverage your analytic prowess and leadership skills to identify, design, build, and launch cutting-edge online experiences. Most of all, you know what it takes to build a great product. Your ability to combine quantitative and qualitative data means that your informed deliver amazing results.

In this role, you’ll partner directly with the CEO to create a product strategy that’ll 10x our user base, revenue, and reach over the next 3 years. You’ll help build Biteable into a video creation platform that’s not only powerful but extremely easy and intuitive to use.

As our first full-time product hire, you’ll be responsible for driving product strategy. You’ll also help support the engineering team to deliver great results, by helping connect them with our customers. You’ll lead the charge in communicating the strategy and data to help us make decisions, and will fill the gaps for the team as necessary. This is a hands-on role.

We have offices in Melbourne and Hobart and a team of remote staff around the globe.
